Summary:
The County Court House, symbolic center of each community from the Colonial era to the present, reflects the attitudes and aspirations of each generation up to our time. This exploration of a vital part of American life tells us much about the people who left their mark on these spaces over a period of two and a half centuries and makes an important contribution to the knowledge of the architecture of the United States. From log cabin to high rise, the photographs and texts encompass modest Colonial buildings and flamboyant structures which are the reflections of properity and pride. The court house stands for the dignity of the law and the democratic principle and is the most significant single building widely distributed across the country.

Summary:
Architecture Without Content is architecture reduced to its very perimeter. The books in the series are the outcome of studios held at EPFL. In Architecture Without Content 14, the second incarnation of Roman Architecture presents itself as a double folded exercise: partly portraying the systematic work by Palladio in the Venetian inland during the second half of the sixteenth century, partyly reusing the accumulated knowledge in order to deal with urgent challenges in contemporary Flanders. The oeuvre by Palladio represents on of the most prototypical incarnations, almost literal indeed, of a possible Roman project. His prolific work for the venetian inlandrepresents a tremendous effort to systematise the complexity of an entire territory, from the city proper (i.e. Vicenza), to the countryside proper 9the sprawl still to come).

Summary:
Architecture Without Content is architecture reduced to its very perimeter. The books in the series are the outcome of studios offered at EPFL. This 21st incarnation of Architecture Without Content is, more than previous editions, a report related to our current (political) malaise. Apart from political urgency, what has changed? If always an architecture of necessity and economy (of means) was central to our argument, we felt it necessary to refine our recent arguments with a more Spartan catalogue. Classicism, acting as a catalyst for simplification, results in this collection of The Commons; an ambiguous collection of possible architecture themes. The catalogue spans from the obelisk, as pure architecture, to the fatto urbano, as a collection of architectural events in which the urban layout becomes the dominant factor.

Summary:
Architecture Without Content is architecture reduced to its very perimeter. The books in the series are the outcome of studios held at EPFL. In Architecture Without Content 16, an interest in Neo-Palladianism has been added to a project that investigates the impact of scale, as Palladianism was a defining factor in the early identification of 'American Architecture.' Thus, the studio was both formalistic and pragmatic and tried to inflate Palladian architecture to the scale of the strip: Neon Palladian. In the vast landscape of the United States of America, the scale of food production has always been gigantic. At the same time, it has seldom regained an architectural form similar to that of its most defining orgins. In this book, you will find projects that are organising an aspect of food production. In one way or another, they reconnect to the long-lost virtues of Jefferson's Palladianism.
